Aaron Gayden is an amazing utility guy in so many areas, the studio, church staff, producer, arranger, beat maker and all around nice guy.

"Aaron is a creative composer and leader of worship teams. He is able to bring out the best in peoples talents and yet have a lot of fun doing it. He is a team player that gets along with staff and worship teams. Aaron has a heart for worship which is demonstrated in rehearsals, on Sundays and in his composition. He loves God's music. I recommend him highly. Larry Stirlen
Aaron,
Thanks for your outstanding work on the songs. Creating two and a half hours of music in 6 weeks is insane. Your contribution helped elevate the quality and cool factor. Invaluable input and loved the collaboration. Always a pleasure to work with you.
- Bryan E. Miller
Creative Director
Sensory Overload Music
"I have used Aaron as a BG singer on one of my CD's Celebration Live as well as used him as a soloists at many of my city wide worship concerts. He is annointed, gifted and always has a joyful heart. He is a joy to work with."
Aaron Gayden is pure magic. He turned "What A Beautiful World," "Morning Has Broken" and "Let There Be Peace On Earth" into straight to your heart, gospel/jazz testimonies. Self-directing or taking direction, he is a joy to work with and his voice is sound ministry. He brings to any project the expertise of a gifted song writer/vocalist, sound engineer, producer and arranger. Gentle and enthusiastic, to work with him is to meet a new friend.

Worship Leader Mountain View Community Church
Aaron Gayden is one of the most creative songwriters and intuitive worship leaders that I have ever worked with. I had the pleasure of serving with him at SeaCoast Community Church for over five years and that experience helped make me a better worshipper and worship team member. He truly knows how to lead singers and band members with humility and enthusiasm.

haha, alright man... We should go to the game at Arco when the Lakers come to town. You wear your Kobe Jersey and I'll have my Kevin Martin... and We'll see what happens...
I love your music, but I just went to one of your other pages, not the "just visiting Terra" one, the other one. I really liked the beat to a couple of songs on there. Great stuff! You are so talented!
MAN!!! How in the world are you doing? From reading your page, looks like you are doing very well for yourself. How are your parents and your lil sister doing?
